Input

SExtractor catalogue

Output

SExtractor catalogue

Description

This module merges separate input catalogues. This applies to a run of the previous module that was split into several (parallel) sub-processes to save wall-clock time. This is useful for time-consuming modules, such as galaxy shape measurement e.g. via ngmix_runner. This module merges the outputs of those sub-processes back into a complete output catalogue.

Note that the input catalogues should not contain identical objects.

Module-specific config file entries

N_SPLIT_MAXint

Number of input sub-catalogues

WARNINGstr, optional

Warning action if one or more input catalogue is missing; default is error (one of the actions defined here)
